It's unclear what Eddie Hearn and Oscar's relationship is, but I doubt that Hearn let's Oscar get anywhere near running his own shows on DAZN with his own billion dollar deal not yet secure.
Ignore the reality all you want, but Oscar is ****ed.
Hand the keys over to Eric Gomez to run, go back to simply being the figurehead who hopefully more quietly goes on his benders, and hope against hope that Espinoza or someone has fond enough memories of Gomez to actually pick up the call, lol.
Beyond that, if you honestly want to weigh out pockets, let's weigh out pockets, fool.

You don't think ESPN and showtime are making calls as we speak to Golden Boy promotions to bring them to their network??
I'm sure you don't wanna believe that cause you're just a hater but who wouldn't want Canelo on their network? Who wouldn't want Ryan Garcia on their network? Who wouldn't want Linares, JoJo Diaz, Munguia, Vergil Ortiz, and other fighters in the Golden Boy stable on their network?
Think about it you dumb fool!
I know you're a hater but use your brain for once and use common sense!
How stupid can you really be to think other networks aren't licking their chops at the thought of signing the biggest star in boxing??
Just think about it you fool!

I grew up watching HBO boxing, no other network put on better quality presentation of the sport then they did, full of unforgettable dramatic moments & fights. Hats off to the production staff & to the play by play men & analysts of past & present: Tompkins, Merchant, Lamply, Kellerman & the detailed insight of Roy & Andre. You will be missed.

I keep thinking back to when HBO started televising boxing in the 70's. They were the kings back then and can remember several times back in the late 70's and into the mid 80's going over to friends houses who had HBO just to watch the fights.It's the end of an era for sure but that era really ended a long time ago.Good memories. Thank you HBO.
